At the sound of the whistle, the ropes drop, allowing access to every genre of books available. Books are categorized by subject and are clearly labeled above each table. Cashiers are located at the ends of each tent and in the middle white tents. Cash,checks and Credit Cards are accepted.
Minutes before the whistle goes off and book lovers descend on their favorite genres, such as history, cooking, novels, spiritual, travel, biography, health, mind-body, humor, hobbies, education, sports and gardening just to name a few!
Some people enjoy being front and center, year after year when the whistle blows and the ropes come down around our huge tents. Others say they like coming later in the afternoon. And because our Book Fair runs for eight consecutive days, still other folks enjoy arriving when we open each morning.
Our large, airy tents make it easy to relax and wander about at your own pace, to read book jackets, browse for, and find, just the right book that you didn’t know you were hoping to find!
It’s summertime, and we welcome folks to enjoy our grounds and relax! And yes, even the well-mannered family dog (on leash) is welcome.
Bring your young readers, we’ve got the books!
Whether it’s three books, three bags full or three boxes of books, many folks enjoy hanging out for a spell to read before leaving the grounds with their purchases and heading for home.
